How To Manage the Construction of a New Home

You've hired a reliable Builder and an outstanding Architect and are about to start the process to build that new dream home.  So now what? 

The architect will come up with a fabulous design that will meet your needs and design style and the builder will ensure that your home gets built to specifications and codes.  But what about the interior?  While the architect will design an amazing structure, he is not always considering the interior elements of your new home, such as the actual use of your space and interior details that may enhance your lifestyle.

Many hire an Interior Designer at the beginning of a project as well.  This way you can benefit from all your professionals working together for you!

Often elements, especially windows while aesthetically pleasing to the exterior architecture of the home, end up causing difficulty for interior use of space.  An Interior Designer will ensure that the architect creates interior spaces that are functional and that furniture will fit and good placement is possible.

Many finishes for this new home will have to be chosen.  Flooring, cabinets, doors, trim details, tile, lighting, plumbing, appliances, counter tops and paint colors will all have to be selected by you.  Your builder will need to know all these interior finishes in a timely manner in order to keep the job moving on schedule.  Your interior designer will help you make all of these selections and show you the complete picture, so that you will understand what the interior of your home will look like when completed.

If these elements are discussed at the onset and worked on throughout the process,  then the team of professionals you have hired will ensure your home is everything you dreamed of!
